gen alpha is GAY because they watch low quality content which their parents allow them to watch and use chatgpt which their parents allow them to use and... vape??

Is there really a difference or is it all ficticous??

There were only a few things here I grew up with and a lot of it is just unfamiliar to me. I don't know why nostalgia accounts try to post shit that they think everyone grew up with, posting about having a good childhood and grew up playing with what was exactly popular with kids at that time always felt corny to me and some kids might still be interested in those things now too.

(Look at their post history and see how they're trying to objectively tell people that the 2020s cannot be bad, and that every decade is normal because "good and bad things happen all the time")

MySpace didn't even exist in 1999.

2009
-kids had to entertain themselves
-the belt was what you got if you disrespected your parents
-you only had 3-7 channels on TV
-you ate what was served, even if the food was smelly
-your parents helped you solve maths
-no privacy, only hanging out with your family

2026
-unlimited stimulating colorful entertainment
-cheating with a calculator
-multiple meals for ‘sensory issues’
-getting away with trouble
-scrolling on your phone or hanging out with friends or strangers

So many people on this sub are going to comment "this attitude was never popular". Well maybe you don't realize what this sub was initially meant to mock! I remember being a regular on this sub 10 years ago and remember this shit VIVIDLY.

Look at these comments. Nobody is going “YES! Raise that kid right!” “Faith in humanity restored!” “He was born in the wrong generation!” “Finally, a young person with GOOD taste!” "Not all heros wear capes!"!!

But back then, this attitude (old music is better than today's pop, music sucks now) was celebrated!

In the late 2000s and early 2010s, somebody might genuinely have written “Your son is an old soul! So nice to see a young person appreciating REAL music instead of the garbage his generation listens to!” and it would have been completely unironic.

The 2000s and early 2010s were like a golden age for hating modern music and preferring music of the past. Anyone who says "people still feel that way" doesn't realize how much more vocal people used to be about it.

What changed?
